For many South African companies, purchasing heavy equipment and machinery outright is not an option. There are various reasons for this – from the company not having the capital for this to not having a constant need for this type of heavy machinery. Whatever the case might be, there are times when these businesses will need to access heavy earth moving equipment on a project-by-project basis and purchasing it isn’t possible. This is where plant hire services become of value.

With plant hire, companies can access the earth moving equipment they need to in order for them to see through a project to the end without breaking their budget in buying all the machinery they’d need to achieve that. It’s also because of services like these that many companies are able to operate in South Africa today. Plant hire companies make available an extensive range of equipment and machinery that can perform many different functions and add value to companies operating in many different sectors of the economy. Here are some of the machines that you can expect from a plant hire provider.

Forklifts and Other Heavy Lifting Equipment

Forklift trucks are used for lifting heavy packages and crates. These machines are frequently used by depots and warehouses in order for them to manage their stock and inventory effectively. This lifting equipment can move objects on top of pallets and move them around with relative ease. Whenever you require an extra forklift turning to plant hire providers in South Africa is a great option.

An excavator is another popular piece of equipment made available with plant hire. Its purpose is to dig holes and trenches and can perform earthmoving duties in just about any working condition. Excavators make use of buckets to dig and booms to reach fair distances where earth is loaded and moved. When choosing the type of excavator to work with, keeping the bucket size in mind is important to making sure you choose the correct machine to work with.
